The NHS covers the whole of the U.K. and has a major role in promoting the health of the population. The NHS provides diagnostic services and treatments for various health conditions. If an individual is diagnosed with a condition appropriate advice and treatment would be offered in order to try and maintain the individual’s health and well-being.

Mae'r GIG yn ymdrin â'r Deyrnas Unedig i gyd ac mae'n chwarae rhan fawr i hybu iechyd y boblogaeth. Mae'r GIG yn darparu gwasanaethau diagnostig a thriniaethau ar gyfer gwahanol gyflyrau iechyd. Os bydd unigolyn yn cael diagnosis o gyflwr byddai cyngor a thriniaeth briodol yn cael eu cynnig er mwyn ceisio cynnal iechyd a llesiant yr unigolyn.

Mae'r GIG hefyd yn cynnig gwasanaeth hybu iechyd (Iechyd Cyhoeddus Cymru) a chyngor i geisio annog unigolion i wneud dewisiadau iach ac i atal afiechyd. Gall hyn gynnwys cyngor a gwasanaethau am faterion fel:

• iechyd meddwl a llesiant

Social prescribing, sometimes referred to as community referral, is a means of enabling GPs, nurses and other primary care professionals to refer people to a range of local, non-clinical services.

Social prescribing schemes can involve a variety of activities which are typically provided by voluntary and community sector organisations.

Examples include arts activities, group learning, gardening, befriending, cookery, men’s sheds as support for bereaved or redundant men to combat anxiety and depression.

Mae presgripsiynau cymdeithasol, y cyfeirir ato weithiau fel atgyfeiriad cymunedol, yn ffordd o alluogi meddygon teulu, nyrsys a gweithwyr proffesiynol eraill ym maes gofal sylfaenol i atgyfeirio pobl at amrywiaeth o wasanaethau lleol, anghlinigol.

Councils have been given a leading role to reduce health inequalities and premature deaths, and improve health and well-being.

They are required to tackle the cause of ill-health, reduce health inequalities and commission services that address the needs of the local population; particularly the health needs of the disadvantaged and vulnerable groups, as well as giving consideration to equality issues.

Mae cynghorau wedi cael rôl flaenllaw i leihau anghydraddoldebau iechyd a marwolaethau cynamserol, a gwella iechyd a llesiant.

Mae’n ofynnol iddyn nhw fynd i’r afael ag achosion afiechyd, lleihau anghydraddoldebau iechyd a chomisiynu gwasanaethau sy'n rhoi sylw i anghenion y boblogaeth leol; yn benodol anghenion iechyd grwpiau dan anfantais a rhai sy'n agored i niwed, yn ogystal ag ystyried materion yn ymwneud â chydraddoleb.

Access the resources available to borrow when running health living campaigns at local authority level.

Only four resources can be borrowed at any one time.

http://www.healthyworkingwales.wales.nhs.uk/

Thinking of the issues in your local authority, decide which health campaign you would run and explain which resources you would borrow and how you think they will help.

Defnyddiwch yr adnoddau sydd ar gael i'w benthyg wrth redeg ymgyrchoedd byw'n iach ar lefel awdurdod lleol.

Gellir benthyg pedwar adnodd ar y tro yn unig.

http://www.healthyworkingwales.wales.nhs.uk/

Meddyliwch am y materion yn eich awdurdod lleol, penderfynwch pa ymgyrch iechyd fyddech chi'n ei rhedeg ac esboniwch pa adnoddau fyddech chi'n eu benthyg a sut rydych yn credu y byddan nhw o gymorth.

Schools promote health by providing health education through both the formal curriculum during lesson times and through the informal curriculum, such as through assemblies. Through the formal curriculum classroom -based topics that might include: healthy eating, mental health and well-being and sexual health. Through the informal curriculum topics such as road safety may be addressed, for example having an assembly on road safety or bullying prevention.

Teachers and lecturers can encourage positive attitudes and healthy living and give advice on general well-being. They can carry out classroom activities to promote health, such as projects on diet and facilitate physical education.

Public Health Wales believe that teaching and learning can help an individual build the knowledge and skills they need to grow into healthy individuals through:

• Knowledge – underpinning (e.g. how the human body works; the NHS and other services: wider influences on health and well-being)
• Knowledge – topic or theme specific (the effect of smoking on the body; nutrition)
• Skills – cross cutting (assertiveness; conflict resolution; risk assessment and management)
• Skills – topic or theme specific (physical skills or practical food preparation).

Mae ysgolion yn hybu iechyd drwy ddarparu addysg iechyd drwy'r cwricwlwm ffurfiol yn ystod gwersi a thrwy'r cwricwlwm anffurfiol, fel yn ystod gwasanaethau. Fel rhan o'r cwricwlwm ffurfiol, gallai testunau a drafodir gynnwys: bwyta'n iach, iechyd meddwl a llesiant ac iechyd rhywiol. Fel rhan o'r cwricwlwm anffurfiol, gellid rhoi sylw i bynciau fel diogelwch ffyrdd, er enghraifft drwy gynnal gwasanaeth ar ddiogelwch ffyrdd neu atal bwlio.

Gall athrawon a darlithwyr annog agweddau cadarnhaol a byw'n iach a rhoi cyngor ar lesiant cyffredinol. Gallan nhw gynnal gweithgareddau yn yr ystafell ddosbarth i hybu iechyd, fel projectau ar ddeiet a hwyluso addysg gorfforol.

Mae Iechyd Cyhoeddus Cymru yn credu gall addysgu a dysgu helpu unigolyn i feithrin y wybodaeth a'r sgiliau sydd eu hangen arno i dyfu yn unigolyn iach drwy'r dulliau canlynol:

• Gwybodaeth – cyflwyno ffeithiau sylfaenol (e.e. sut mae'r corff dynol yn gweithio; y GIG a gwasanaethau eraill: dylanwadau ehangach ar iechyd a llesiant)
• Gwybodaeth – ar destun neu thema benodol (effaith ysmygu ar y corff; maeth)
• Sgiliau – trawsbynciol (pendantrwydd; datrys anghydfod; asesu a rheoli risg)
• Sgiliau – ar destun neu thema benodol (sgiliau corfforol neu sgiliau ymarferol paratoi bwyd).
